Delightful Series

This delightful series follows Reverend Annabelle Dixon as she tends her flock of worshipers n England. These cozy mysteries are clever, fun charming and clean. Nicely written and a joy to read or listen to. Highly recommended. I enjoyed these books and am looking forward to the next set. I received a complimentary audiobook book and chose to write a voluntary, unbiased review.

Narrator

I am struggling at the beginning of book two. I'm trying to decide if I can listen to this narrator through three more books. Her voice is just too childlike to me.
The story itself is fine, simple, but entertaining.
This series will most likely sit in my library for a while , at least until I need a book as filler for my ongoing listening.

Entertaining cozy mystery

Enjoyable to listen to and easy to keep track of the characters. Mostly I listen when I am working out and the story has to keep me involved so I can jump into it once a day and still remember what is happening. I have read other books by Alison Golden but this was my first audio version and I loved it.

Reverend Annabelle Solves Mysteries

I'm a long time fan of the Reverend Annabelle Dixon Cozy Mysteries and have enjoyed the entire series. Alison Golden and Jamie Vougeot have created a terrific character whose methodology makes me think of Agatha Christie's Miss Marple with the village life containing just a touch of the Vicar of Dibley. Penny Scott-Andrews narration enhances the story with her pleasant British voice.

I did receive a complimentary copy. My review is given voluntarily.

Great Annabelle Dixon Collection

The Narrator, Penny Scott-Andrews, does a fantastic job with her English Accent and telling Annabelle's stories. This is a wonderful collection of 4 mysteries: Death at the Cafe / Murder at the Mansion / Body in the Woods / Grave in the Garage.

Death at the Cafe is Annabelle's first case, when an old friend, Mary, who is also a nun. Mary has a reputation of being in the wrong place at the wrong time and manages to get Annabelle mixed up in a murder investigation.

Murder at the Mansion is Annabelle's first case in her new location of Upton St. Mary in Cornwall. Annabelle has become a beloved member of the community and goes to visit a newcomer, Sir John Cartwright. When Annabelle first visits Sir John's home, she is told he is meditating and should be available in an hour. On her second visit, she finds Sir John dead with an arrow in his chest and the young girl who originally discovered his body has run away.

Body in the Woods.involves a body that has been buried for many years and only recently discovered by a young boy, Dougie Dewar, tripping over it. This forces Inspector Nicholls to re-open an old cold case, leaving Reverend Annabelle to look for other sources of information.

Grave in the Garage involves Reverend Annabelle's car suddenly dying on her, forcing her to walk back to town to find a garage. Fortunately, she is able to get a ride from Alfred Roper, but when they reach the garage, Mildred Smith dead under a car in one of the service pits and the other employees are nowhere to be found.

Each mystery is well developed and will definitely keep the listener engaged clear to the end.
